China 3G users to reach 300 million in 2012.

According to the data from Enfodesk, in 2011 China’s mobile phone users reached 986 million, an increase of 14.81%. 3G subscribers reached 128 million. The mobile phone penetration rate is over 70%, however 3G penetration rate only reached 13%. The popularity of smart phones and mobile internet applications in China will greatly push 2G users to switch to 3G. We expect 3G user group will rapidly increase in the number of users of more than 300 million, and 3G penetration will be more than a quarter.

根据EnfoDesk易观智库数据表明，2011年中国移动电话用户达9.86亿，同比增长14.81.%。 3G用户达1.28亿。手机普及率超过70%，3G渗透率为13%。但智能手机的普及以及移动互联网应用对于数据带宽的需求，将推动2G移动电话用户大规模向3G群体过度。预计2012年3G用户群体将快速增长，用户数或将超过3亿，而3G渗透率则将超过四分之一。
